time machine gives "The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error 2.)" on readynas duo

So I had a HD fail luckily i have a Time Machine backup of the data however i cant get osx to read it?

 

I connected my readynas and it shows mounted with folders for admin, C, home etc but all show empty in finder which i think is normal.

 

but when i try to connect the readynas time macjhine I originally got the error in the title.

I read a few reports on line and updated to RAIDar 4.1.14. and changed the time machine password in frontview.

 

I can now connect to my readyNAS 1TB in TM

 

BUT it says 10GB available and the timer starts to do a backup rather than recgonising the 900GB of data already backed up..

 

if i try to enter time machine it says cannot connect to a current time machine backup.

 

im very tech illiterate... well a littl bit and I just cant work out what to do...

 

thanks

Have you looked at articles on restoring from a Time Machine backup e.g. using Migration Assistant?

 

Which version of Mac OS X is on your Mac?
